This work represents a bold fusion of Afro-Brazilian rhythmic patterns with elements of global bass, incorporating influences from genres like trap, amapiano, gqom, and baile funk.

Comprising five immersive tracks, the production stands out for its significant presence of deep and heavy sounds. The expressive use of synths, sub bass, wide kicks, and authentic samplers provides a unique sonic experience, transcending musical boundaries.

The inspiration behind this EP traces back to the cultural roots of Brazilian candomblé and umbanda. Each track is a sonic journey that incorporates elements from the rhythms and themes of these spiritual traditions, creating a bridge between the past and the future. The essence of Afrofuturism is carefully woven into each beat, symbolizing an intrinsic connection between worship, respect for ancestry, and musical evolution.

The resulting sound is a bold blend of tradition and innovation, where contemporary beats harmoniously coexist with the cultural richness of Afro-Brazilian rhythms. This EP is more than just a collection of songs; it is a musical narrative that celebrates diversity, honors roots, and envisions a futuristic perspective influenced by ancestral traditions.

The starting point of this beat was a sampler of a revolutionary song from Mozambique in the 70's during their war for independence, the text says "Down with decadent culture/Long live the Mozambican culture!" 
From this sampler the whole beat structure was born, including BPM & Key. This is a characteristic of my compositional process, always starting from some traditional Afrodiasporic sampler or rhythm. Modernizing the past...
The Beat was produced in Berlin at the studio "Casa de Kboko" and was mixed and mastered by sound engineer Pitota, who signs the cover is the French multidisciplinary artist Exocé Kasongo.

this one a Hommage to Oxumaré a afrobrazillian deity, based in your particular rhythm, the mysterious SAVALU...
Oxumaré directs the act, the transformation and the power which produces motion. He is displayed as a male and a female Orixá and thus lives a twofold nature. For six months he is male, during this time his symbol is the rainbow. In this phase his task is to bring the water from the waterfall to heaven (Oxalá's empire). For the other six months he adopts a female form. During this phase, represented by the snake, she sometimes transforms into a beautiful goddess called Bessém.
The two symbols snake and rainbow represent renewal. With this duality Oxumaré carries all contradictions, all opposites inside of her: Day and night, sweet and sour, good and bad, male and female, etc. Like a snake he bites his own tail and thus forms a circle. This circle symbolizes the planet earth and the motion of all celestial bodies in the universe.

Adarrum is a "hot" rhythm, fast and continuous and reminiscent of the frantic gallop of a horse. It is also a rhythm that can be played only with atabaques, without singing, and its main objective is to provide TRANSE during candomblé rituals, the Afro-Brazilian animist religion that worships Orixas, Nkisis and Voduns, nature forces and different archetypes that manifest themselves through the mediums during the rituals. ADARRUMMM! IS K'BOKO'S VERSION OF THIS TRADITIONAL RHYTHM, RESPECTING THE PATTERNS AND SONIC DYNAMICS ADDING SOME BASS AND A PSYCHEDELIC MOOD. ENJOY !
